Nice find! You always have to wonder how something like this makes its way into circulation, eh?

I love it when proofs are found and rescued from circulation. Very nice!

I have yet to find a nickel proof and I search that denomination the most. I've found a few dime and cent proofs.

You can find proof halves all of the time if you are CRHing. If they are breaking out the halves and spending them, I would assume they are spending the rest of the proof coins as well. My oldest proof half find was from 1968. I have also found a silver proof 2006, from a silver proof set.
